I sometimes wonder what would happen if I converted to christianity, but for utterly despicable reasons. Like if I came on one day and began extolling the virtues of Jesus on the basis that the old testament narrative justifies racism, stuff like that. If I'd converted to a Westboro Baptist-esque holy hate machine, would I be given the same pass that christians often give each other because I'm now a member of the club? Would the immoral nature of my conversion matter more than the fact that the conversion happened?
